Had the back-to-work sads today. I wore some glittery bell bottoms and all was right in the world.

Just looked at my chem results for 2023. They did pretty well! Quite a few of them levelled up for their final exam. Only three 3s (SL) across a cohort of 96, all HL passed. Interested in the IA sample as all the 20+ scores were marked down by 2 or 3. Looking forward to the mark schemes too.

Mining the Mariana Trench... Woefully too real.

Having hit the 20 years parenting experience milestone in 2023 it’s time to offer some advice to prospective parents…
Plant a lemon or lime tree about a year or two before you’re planning to start a family. Because citrus look after themselves and you won’t be gardening again any time soon. And you’re going to need more gin & tonics than you can imagine to get your kid(s) successfully to adulthood.

I'm absurdly excited to learn that 2024 = 2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³.

...and it's because:

2025 = 45², and

45 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9, and

\( 1 + \cdots + n \)^2 = 1^3 + \cdots + n^3 !

Every year, Germans watch a senile #British woman force her #butler to drink to access on New Year's Eve.

"Dinner for One" is a #comedy skit from 1963 that has become the most played television program in #Germany.

"The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" ---
"The same procedure as every year, James."

Despite living in the future here in #Australia, I have not forgotten my roots :NekoApprove:

Happy New Year!

Been holding off an illness for the last 3 weeks of term. First day away for the holidays, BOOM! Fever and congestion.

Getting sick just before the holidays? Sure, why not.
I have felt like this has been my body for the last 3 weeks...

When you clear a big enclave of beasties (Akkala Tech lab, blue flame quest) and then immediately a Blood Moon rises... *sigh*

If you use dropbox--they've opted everyone INTO third party AI tools. Go into your settings and turn it off.

Just sitting here in the gym, struggling for motivation. Sore foot, hair falling out, constantly tired.. I think it is getting to me.

Happy 30th birthday to Doom!

So lets celebrate all the random crap we've managed to get it running on.

Top picks include:
1. A pregnancy test
2. A calculator powered by old potatoes
3. An ATM (cashpoint)

Truly testaments to human ingenuity!

Here's to another 30 years of porting doom to everything under the sun🥂
